lilburd Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 I've recently upgraded to 6.1 and now I have a red icon that says (not connectable) I use WinXP SP2 but have the firewall disabled, I've done the port foward thing from portforward.com. If I click on the icon and test my port, it says that it is forwarded correctly, and I also checked a port forwarding web site (http://btfaq.com/natcheck.pl). It said "Successfully connected, but didn't get proper a BitTorrent client response. Make sure you entered a correct hash ID that corresponds to the active torrent on your system. Most likely, your network is properly configured, but repeat this test with a valid hash ID to be sure. " not sure why it would say this as I am only dl one thing and I double and triple checked the hash and tried typing it in the box with and without spaces and it still said the same thing. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get a green light?thnxLilburd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 What other internet-using programs do you have on that computer?(Even ones not running at the moment may leave behind a DLL that can cause conflicts.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orbzon Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Make sure your current IP address is the one being used for the ports. If your ports are linked to an old IP address, you need to update it for the ports to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
